Description
I'm trying to set up a project that can be built with both cargo and bazel. The repo is at https://github.com/prestontw/bazel-rust-vendored-experiment/tree/return-to-rust-rules
I'm trying to vendor external dependencies, but when I do, I see:
```
% bazel run //:crates_vendor
INFO: Analyzed target //:crates_vendor (1 packages loaded, 2 targets configured).
INFO: Found 1 target...
Target //:crates_vendor up-to-date:

error: failed to sync
Caused by:
failed to create directory `/crates`
Caused by:
Read-only file system (os error 30)
Error: Failed to vendor dependencies
Caused by:
Failed to vendor sources with: exit status: 101
```
I see the same error if I rely on the default value.
From the error message and the directory path, it seems like the path is absolute rather than relative to the workspace. Indeed, specifying the vendor path as an absolute path (`/User/preston/git/bazel-experiment/crates`) works.
